An Amber Alert issued at around 8:30-p.m. Tuesday for an eastern Iowa boy was cancelled a little more than two-hours later, with the suspects in custody and the child found safe in Anamosa. Authorities said 5-year-old Abel Lee Keil was believed to have been taken from Baldwin, in Jackson County, at around 3:30 p.m. Tuesday, by 46-year-old Jeremy John Keil and 35-year-old Amy Lynn Burick.

It was believed Keil and Burick intended to take Abel to Clinton or Davenport. The case is under investigation by the Jackson County Sheriff’s Office.
